The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 279 PONTEFRACT ROAD sales between November 2011 and December 2022 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the November 2021 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks in line HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, which was also at roughly the same level as the HPI.
